Nas & Lauryn Hill Embarking On Joint “Life Is Good/Black Rage” Tour

Hip-Hop fans rejoice, Nas and Lauryn Hill are going on tour together. The rap icons will be embarking on the “Life Is Good/Black Rage” Tour. The national tour kicks off on October 6th in Maryland before concluding on December 31st in New York City.

The tour’s name is derived from Nas’ current, critically acclaimed Life Is Good album and a new song from Ms. Hill titled “Black Rage,” a song about the “derivative effects of racial inequity and abuse” that won’t be out until the fall.

“I use the performance platform as an opportunity to express the energy of that moment, and the intention behind it,” said L Boogie via a press statement. “I’ve been a long standing rebel against the stale, over commoditization. As artists we have opportunity to help the public evolve, raise consciousness and awareness, teach, heal, enlighten and inspire in ways the democratic process may not be able to touch. So we keep it moving.”

Added Nas, also via press statement, “This is history. Better late than never. Life is good!”
